Coral Square

This mall, located near my residence, is a frequent destination for me. Although it hasn’t undergone significant changes over the years, the stores and prices within remain reasonably fair, and the quality of the products is commendable. The food court offers a diverse array of options, catering to various tastes and preferences.

Excellent experience to spend money you don't have

The shopping experience is great as far as the stores go. But for the playground area it's fun for kids, but you have to have toddlers to play there. The security is a total and complete joke, they had the nerve to try and kick my children out of the play area, because they look older than they are. I have twin 11 year olds with ASD Syndrome (Autism Spectrum Disorder), and they were playing a role playing game with another child the same age as them, but he was a little shorter than them. I had to actually get in the security guards face and inform them that my kids are just that, kids! Please make sure if shop there and a real crime happens, that the security guards don't try and blame your children for it or actually do their job and try and stop the criminals from harming the public. I hope they get re-trained to learn how to identify real issues and not worry about children playing civilly on a playground!

Horrible. They need to replace the current floor manager. She's unprofessional; she doesn't treat the public kindly. I spent over 20 minutes waiting for her help, and I had to leave because she was helping everyone, leaving me waiting. She's the floor manager, but she does a poor job.

My reason for coming today was to replace my Watch 🔋. It was not crowded at all after 4PM which is fine, but the mall does need a special touch to bring more business. I saw some new stores. I do wish they had more department stores , but this mall is NOT BIG enough like other malls. They have JC PENNY, MACYS , Kohl’s . I go there since it’s the neighborhood mall near where I live . If you are visiting for the first time, the good thing it’s near University Drive where lots of restaurants, near a movie theatre near the 1-75 highway.

I have a set of twin boys 11 years on the spectrum.yesterday July 23 my husband went to coral springs mall to shop and then decided to take our boys to the playground the mall offers.the security mall harassed my kids because they were too big to play my husband didn't stayed quiet. In which they continue to play.well today I had to go back to shop and took them to the playground again .once again the security decided to approach my kids.big mistake she made one should always address an adult not a kid.as that not enough she decided to get her supervisor and both decide to stared my kid and intimidated them meanwhile my kids were sitting role playing.yes lost my cool like any parent would it done.funny thing both times my kids were there not one parent complained.what Iam mad about specifically the manager that came out called my kid way to big that he can damage the play bumps meanwhile they are in a regular bases 20 to 30 kids running around also same age my kids are .this was a total discrimination that made my kids feel so bad .even adult can be ignorant towards kids weights.

Nice place to hangout for sometime with bit expensive of all products. Nice play area for kids. Having multiple fooding option as well

My wife bought a dress for a wedding at STEPS NEW YORK that did not match the weddings colors which we checked upon returning home. When attempting to return the dress i was told they do not accept returns. There was no information about this store policy at the time of purchase nor today until I questioned this, then they pulled out an old placard buried under a stack of clothes on a back counter. Simon should not allow businesses such as this that hide behind unknown store policies.

Coral Square Mall is a fantastic family-friendly destination that offers a delightful mix of shopping and entertainment options. I recently took my daughter and her friend for a day of fun, and they had an absolute blast! One of the highlights of our visit was the bungee jumping, which the kids thoroughly enjoyed. They also spent a good amount of time in the arcade, where they played various games and had a great time competing against each other. The Build-A-Bear workshop was another big hit, allowing the kids to create their own unique stuffed animals, which they cherished. In addition to these attractions, Coral Square Mall features a variety of smaller stores that specialize in children's accessories and toys, making it easy to find something special for the little ones. The dedicated kids' play area is a thoughtful touch, providing a safe space for children to burn off some energy while parents relax nearby. The mall itself is clean and well-maintained, which adds to the overall pleasant experience. While I wasn't particularly impressed with the food court options, it certainly wasn't a deal breaker for us. Overall, Coral Square Mall proved to be a great destination for families looking to enjoy a day out, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone seeking a fun and engaging shopping experience for their kids.

I was nice to walk around inside the mall on a hot rainy morning. I thought this is a great place to enjoy a little shopping while also enjoying the entertaining options. There is a small playground for preschoolers and younger. There is an arcade full of video games. A photo booth and some great places to eat in the food court. The bathrooms are located at the far end away from the food court. Not sure if there is one close to the food court. There is a Little Grre Library for book exchanges near the restrooms. The food court had many options from fried chicken to Mediterranean food as well as the usual food court fare. Parking was great and well marked and the access road into the mall was well marked for directions.

Coral Square opened in 1984 and is a shopping mall in Coral Springs, FL with about 120 stores and 16 eateries. Other amenities include a play area, an aquarium, dining pavilion, and a variety of events. It is the second mall in the Western portion of Broward County; the first mall is Broward Mall (see my review on that, if you'd like). Currently, the anchor stores are Kohl's, JC Penney, and Macy's. It's a beautiful indoor mall with plenty of parking. It looks like a typical mall, a great place to walk around and shop. My family and I would usually go when the weather is not too good; a decent place to keep us entertained. My kids loved the play area. It does get busy like other malls do on the weekends; the best time to go is on the weekdays. Overall, a nice mall, if you like Broward Mall, you would definitely like this place too.

This is a pretty good mall for families. There are a lot of places for you to shop and they also have a pretty good food court with other food spots for you to grab a quick bite. There's also a playground next to the Kohl's. It's a great place to bring the kids and a nice clothes place that is safe as well for the kids to have fun and for the parents to not worry. I recommend this place in the summer because it is Not hot and you have indoor play area and things to do.

The Toy Stop store, sells fake Labubu toys as real and original. Poor quality, no collector card, and misleading pricing. Clearly counterfeit. Avoid!

My First time visiting this mall and I must say, it needs a redo as there are a lot of open spaces missing stores and it looks a bit dirty in the outer areas. The food court is big and they have a lot of food outlets to choose from which was nice. They also have a few stores to choose from and with great prices. They also have basic mall stores such as Macy's, and JCPenney, and they also have a Khols. In all they have a good selection and service varies in each area you go. But there's something for everyone to select from. During the day aims all fine but in the evening poor lighting in the outside. And very little security presence.

I been coming here for years coral square is that go to mall you can go right to one store and find what you need in an out with good food options to try out and sample. They have a few play areas for toddler and things to keep kids a little entertain, so walk with some extra cash cause kids will be crying if they don't get to try out some stuff like the single person bouncer thingy or whatever it is called where the kids wear a harness and get to bounce up in the air. I stopped by to grab a few outfits for my baby in carters since they had a sale and my aunty was treating my baby , we scored a few good deals. the girls in carters were very patient with my aunty with trying to help her find her account so she can get a few more deals . We were not here long cause it was a Sunday afternoon and the mall closes at 6pm. The only thing that had me mad was the car stroller they had in the mall we couldn't get the one my baby wanted to ride in and she had a fit i tried to ask the guy in the office for assistance and he couldn't help.

A Simon Property mall, pretty standard condition and food court was busy. Stores weren't as busy on the weekday, though they had a number of anchor stores like Macy's (men and women's split into two stores?), JC Penney, Kohl's and another large space still open. Giant parking spaces around the different mall so not the easiest to get in/out.

Came to get my sons ears pierced at Claire's. It was fast and the mall was not as packed as I expected it to be. Lots of places to shop they have a new aquarium inside next to build a bear. Checked out a few stores and that's it.

This mall it's great when I'm in the area coming here it's very pleasant and it has great stores ! It's never too packed , it's always cleaned and organized compared to most !

I've been going to this mall for so many years that I was surprised I had not done a review... It's had its ups and downs over the years as stores have come and gone -- including Dillards. But mainly, I've come here for shopping at Old Navy or for Macys. And in years past, one or two of the companies my husband worked for have had stores here, as well, so he was here for loss prevention or investigations. I sometimes tagged along when I was not working. So we came here again most recently on a quick errand. There's usually lots of parking -- except around the holidays. At Christmas time, it gets a bit crazy. It's a decent, but older mall, and is easy to get to within a short driving time. I'm sure I'll be here again, sometime.

A friend of mine lives in Margate and brought my daughter and me here for an afternoon of shopping. Parking was easy and it wasn't crowded. They have many of our favorite stores and we had a nice time getting our steps in. We found some good deals too. They have JC Penney, Macy's, Kohl's, and the usual mall stores (Bath & Body Works, Victoria's Secret, Old Navy, etc...plus a lot of kids stores.) And a Starbucks. My friend noticed some stores had closed but that's unfortunately typical of brick & mortar stores these days. We had a great time here.

I am not a fan of this mall. So many stores have gone out of business. Invluding Chick Fil A. That is astonishing. I have never heard of one closing down but I guess there are just not enough customers. Buca di Beppo also closed somewhat recently. It is a ghost town. JCPenney is way understaffed. They also were out of stock with some towels I probably wpuld have purchased. GNC store is very small. One positive thing I can think of is they have lots of parking....everywhere!! It seems like the rows and columns of parking spaces goes on for miles and miles. Macy's is pretty fun to shop in. This Macy's seems to have unique clothing conpared to other Macy's. Otherwise, I really do not like this mall. I stopped here today because I was in the area and had some free time before work.

Really good shopping mall. Lots of stores to choose from with decent prices, the food court have plenty of options to choose from. The zales in this shopping mall is amazing, Go see Carol she's the best, friendly and so helpful, all the staff in the store are so friendly and courteous. I would definitely recommend this place. Overall the mall is close and convenient for me, has all the stores I shop at and is clean and comfortable. My go to shopping center in coral square.

This is the mall I grew up at and I can Say it's still pretty small they do have a few things like city hall and kohls but not much left . It's sad but it's a decent mall with a few good stores wish it had more things. But time to time they do have Some good stuff .

The Coral Square Mall is relevant and important for businesses and residents/tourists in our city. They keep it safe with security, have a large selection of food that has ranged from middle eastern too mexican; in addition to american (too many 'chinese food shops' * 3 out if maybe 7 food stops in the food court). The stores are a great selection too. Major brands too suppliers selling at cost/marked down in addition too mom and pop shops. Check it out. I love my cities! Gotta represent :)!

Simon says, "Put your hand on the wheel and drive there!" It's not news that the malls in North America [the top ones] are owned and operated by Simon Property Group. They have come quite a long way through the years and this mall is no exception. It may not be my favorite, but it's the most visited through the years. In fact, with the obvious exception of my youngest, all of my children worked their first PT job while in H.S. at this mall. I can't quite put my finger on why it doesn't prosper as it should, but they have made strides in raising the bar in security, upkeep, and the standard of retail stores and select restaurants. The bathrooms are clean and there is a Nursing Room for moms on the east corridor by Kohl's. The play area for toddlers was revamped, and the train ride is still up and full-functioning on the west! The cushiony, comfortable seating is quite the spread throughout--with charging stations! There is plenty of parking, with manned security doing their rounds. And lastly, the ample selection of food fare in their Court leaves plenty of room for choice! I don't know how long Chef Z has been there, but it was a treat to see him jump from behind the cameras to behind the counter last night! ;) I realize it's a double-edged sword that this mall is not frequented by more patrons, but the edge is in my favor. There hasn't been a time that "pressed for time," I drove here and my shopping experience was anything other than satisfactory!

This is an amazing mall. I'm sad that malls might go away, just because of this mall! This mall is amazing, and I love the stores. My favorite stores are hot topic, papaya, madrag, bath and body works, and box lunch. But my overall favorite is hot topic for sure.

Love this mall! Love hanging with my friends there. Nice kind of big. Good for shopping day with friends and family!

Love this mall! It is a bit smaller than the average mall but it is packed with stores, kiosk shops, and play areas for the kids. I enjoy this mall way more than other because it's not over populated. It never feels crowded. There's a wide variety of cuisine in the food court and this mall has stores where you can buy clothing, music/movies, skateboards, gag gifts, jewelry, toys, candles, sports ware, build-a-bear, hot sauce (yes there's an entire store just for hot sauce), household items, knickknacks, or even government documents because there's a city hall! This mall also includes a massage/spa, massive arcade, and dental office! Employees have always treated me right and I've been shopping here since I was a child. The mall it also surrounded by different plazas with numerous restaurants, activities, and even a movie theater. I would definitely recommend this mall.

This mall was close by the hotel we stayed in so we decided to pay it a visit. It's another "Simon Mall" so I expected it to be just another cookie cutter mall. In some ways, it was as many of the chain stores you see elsewhere were there. However, there were some stores that appeared to be not national chains, which made this mall a bit more interesting than others. This mall is on one level. The food court did have some of the expected offerings but there were others that we hadn't see before. For example, we never saw the following places anywhere else---Charley's Steakery, Churromania, Chao Cajun and Asian Chao. The last 2 places mentioned were giving out some samples and for food court food, it wasn't bad. There are 2 Macy's---that, in itself, isn't unique as the Fair Oaks Mall has 2 Macy's. What makes these 2 Macy's unique is that one sells men's and children's clothing while the other sells "ladies apparel". Also, one of the anchor stores is Kohl's. Every single Kohl's I've seen (so far) have been free-standing stores. There is a Buca de Beppo in the mall, also. That was something I didn't expect to see. The one thing that really caught my eye "City Hall in the Mall" --- and it was busy with long lines! We didn't see any overflowing trash cans that others mentioned. In fact, the place looked clean. We only spent a short time here. That said, I thought it would be a good spot to visit on a hot, humid summer Florida day, as there are plenty of places to sit and to get a cold beverage. We also found the parking lot to be easy to navigate.

While I am glad that they have hand sanitizing stations, more than half of them are empty which defeats their purpose. About half the shoppers are not wearing masks and it was extremely difficult to main 5 feet from everyone. Many stores were still close like the Starbucks by the food court.

Mall is hot and seems like there is no air conditioning, homeless people in restrooms, and sitting around the mall. Stores such as Macy's are super disorganized, and unpleasant.

Coral Square Mall is one of the better malls in Broward. There are stores for everyone and a bountiful food court. I'm glad they added Rue 21 to their stores because it is just a great store. I have been going here since I was a child and it still holds up as one of the better malls around.

I love this place because it's never crowded but it's never crowded because there really isn't anything useful here. The food court is the most redeeming quality of the mall and for me personally, the location is great, but that's about it. There is an FYE if you're one of the twenty people who still buys cd's. The popcorn shop is one of my personal favorites. Of course they have staple mall stores like jc Penney, Macy's, Old Navy, and Sears. It's not a totally useless mall, it's just looks bad when you compare it to the Aventura Mall or any newer shopping area. Go with low expectations and you'll be blown away.

One of my favorites malls. You cant find and FYE that easy. Finish line, Champs and Foot Locker. Hot topic and GameStop. Now the mall has Don Pan, that makes delicious bakery.

I remember the day this mall opened and it was the place to be. It's got some decent anchor stores and it's ok inside but it really could use a little sprucing up to bring people back to the area. It's mostly full of teens and the anchor stores are barely staffed. I always pop by here when I need something quickly but if I want to actually shop and enjoy shopping I go somewhere else.

This mall has degraded horribly over the past 15 years. If you want a real mall travel to the Town center mall in Boca.

This mall is the closest one to me so the main reason I shop here is for convenience. I have been shopping here for 18 years and I can't see that much as changed in all those years. When my daughter was younger I frequented Gymboree, Build a Bear, and the Disney Store. Now the stores I mainly shop at are Victoria Secrets, Kohl's, Hot Topic, Bath and Body Works, Journey's and Hallmark. That's about it. Customer service in most of the stores I visit is lackluster so I don't expect it anymore. I try to limit my visits to grabbing what I need and leaving. I rarely linger around. The food court has the usual suspects you would expect to find, there is nothing exciting about it. During the holidays they have Santa or the Easter Bunny available to get portraits done with. Some years ago they took out the carousel which my daughter loved when she was a toddler. It has been replaced by a very sad train ride that goes in a circle. This mall is typical of every other mall I have ever been in. It is good for quick stops. If I need a major shopping trip I am more likely to chose Sawgrass Mills Mall.

I wanted to take a little break from the snow from Massachusetts so I came to visit my cousin and see what she has been up to and i asked her to take me to the mall lol.. Typically mall place! Alot of diversity here so A+ for me!

JC Penney's I called the shoe department today to ask if they had a certain boot in stock that I saw online. I spoke to Raynel, she couldn't have been more helpful. She put the size on hold. I drove to the mall & met Raynel in person. She had the box ready for me. What a kind, patient young sales girl she was. In this crazy world that we live in now a days it was a breath of fresh air to have this young lady be so polite & kind. Thank you Raynel! Kathy T Boca Raton, FL

My business is in this mall and it adds to the characteristics of this mall because I am unique, so my business is booming and good luck.

This mall is very dirty. It was just not clean. The individual stores appeared to be clean but the common areas (bathrooms & interior) were dreadful. Victoria's Secret was a mess. The panties were not sorted by size, color and style. It took me a good 1/2 hour to find what I was looking for. Thankfully the manager (Susan) came to my rescue. She was extremely helpful & went above and beyond to help me find my size and color. I left with everything I wanted & a few extra goodies too. For the first time ever, checkout was super easy. :) JC Penney's was nicely organized and all the sales associates were helpful. Bath & Body Works was a nightmare. I walked out after two minutes. Very rude sales people & the store was packed. Old Navy was great as usual. I had no problem returning five sweaters I purchased before Xmas. The store was in good shape & the cashier was very sweet. Green Leaf (food court) made me a delicious smoothie using only bananas & strawberries. They wanted to add honey water & yogurt but I asked them to use only the fruit. Zero points & it was yummy. :) I was not overly impressed with this mall. Way to many punky looking kids hanging out. I felt uncomfortable & was constantly looking over my shoulder. This mall could use a good makeover & some modernization. It's not bright, shiny and clean like the other malls. It's close to my house so I will return. I will just make sure to bring a friend with me next time. I had no problem finding a parking spot. The highlight of my trip to the mall was the amazing smoothie I had at Green Leaf. It was incredible!

Not the best or biggest mall out there, but it's walking distance from my home, so it is convenient. It's got all the staples a mall should have: Macy's, Sears, JC Penny, Kohl's, express, Victoria's Secret, Game Stop and so on. I wish the food court had better selections. I hardly ever eat there because I just don't like what's there. I guess one positive aspect of it being small, it's that you can walk the whole mall and see everything in a relatively short time.

Visited Coral Springs mall with a friend for a light evening of shopping. Went into JC Penny as they have a Sephora counter. The Sephora location wasn't too busy but was grossly understaffed. The Fenty Beauty display was a wreck, items were partially opened, samples were missing and there was makeup smeared all over the display. The Nars display also had opened product and was dirty. I quickly purchased another product I came in for and dashed out the store. The mall itself has tons of stores for all ages.

One of the really overcrowded and dirtiest malls I have been to. Everywhere you walk it smells of the food court. Also, people frequenting this mall litter everywhere which is so disgusting especially in one of the good areas of South Florida. The garbage cans are overflowing everywhere. They seriously need to revisit their hygiene and sanitation guidelines. I would avoid this place. Once is enough.

My husband bought his car at one of the dealerships located directly across Atlantic Boulevard from this mall. We were with him recently when his car needed to be serviced and they quoted about an hour to an hour and a half wait, so I suggested we walk directly across the street to kill the time instead of sitting in their waiting area. My husband had never been to this mall and commented that it was much nicer than he expected! We had lunch in the food court, walked around for a little bit, and ended up at the play area with our toddler until they called us to come get the car. Turned into a nice day and was MUCH more fun than sitting in a dealership!!! I had actually been to this mall before that and have returned since then as well... Everything I do with my son seems to be in Coral Springs, and despite the fact that the Boca town center is much closer to me (and maybe more ideal if it's just me going!), I tend to prefer this mall since it's so much more kid friendly and my toddler is usually with me, so that is a huge help! They have the free play area, train-rides, car strollers for a small fee, all the kids stores - Gymboree, The Children's Place, Crazy eight, Stride right, and even Old Navy has toddler clothes and maternity clothes too!! Also, there are lots of nice sitting areas, an area you can get a massage as well, the bathrooms are really nice and clean, and there's a nursing station located by the bathrooms as well for nursing mothers! I don't understand why some of these other malls don't offer some of these features!! My only negative comments I can think to make are on the kids area..they need to clean the carpet more often and they really should install a gate on the play area's entrance/exit! They have a phone number listed in that area to call for suggestions, and a friend of mine tried to call to suggest these things and no one answered or got back to her. Other than that, I love this mall and my son does too!!

I love this mall. They have the stores that I love like Macy's, JC Penney and New York & Co., just to name a few. I can stay there all day. The mall is a nice size, not to big. The mall has a nice food court with plenty places to choose from. The mall has my two favorite places, Starbucks and Haagan Dazs!! My addictions! Lol Plenty of parking with security riding around. I would shop there every day if I could!!

So I decided to take a drive toward the coral springs area -I found the coral square mall some nice size parking lot lots of parking spaces before court is in the front entrance as soon as you walk in-there are definitely a variety of stores --if you have a sweet tooth they have a Hagen to auntie Annie's Anna and Mrs. fields- I was drooling at the cookies pretzels and ice cream galore!! I tried to stroll to one and the mall to the next - I did see a Macy's in a JCPenney's I'm not sure if I walked the entirety of the mall is there so much to see and I had a certain amount of time to visit but this is well worth the trip.

The family and I went into PacSun on Sunday, October 6th. We were not greeted, we were not offered any help and the only employee was eat, socializing and using loud profanity. This is absolutely ridiculous! With such low standards and hiring practices I am surprised they are still in business. I am filing a formal complaint with their corporate office as well. Avoid this place if you are looking for quality customer service or a family friendly environment.

Tiny little mall. I went in to macys, express, and holister. Hollister had pretty much nothing in it. I mean rows and rows of empty shelves. That was pretty strange. Express was a mess. Macys was huge but racks and racks of all the same stuff. It was pretty bad. Don't waste your time. Go to Saw Grass.

This mall is ok. It is not the largest around but it is in good shape. The anchor stores are average and for a quick stop, it does the job. If I'm looking for a girls day out, I would probably drive further for something larger and more exciting but it is a good enclosed, neighborhood place to find the basics.

Let me preface this by saying I don't like shopping. I do the majority of my shopping online. When I do have to go shopping, I find myself always going to the Coral Square Mall. All of the stores I need for clothing and gift giving needs are there. I can honestly say I've never had all of the shops I do business with in any other single mall which makes Coral Square unique. There are of course national chain stores but there are also some local boutique shops that have unique clothing and other items. The size of the mall is perfect not too small and not overwhelming like Sawgrass Mills. You can park close to whatever shop you need by looking it up on the mall's website and checking the closest entrance or if you're in the mood to walk around you won't find yourself getting lost. Most if not all of the bays are occupied, dispelling that feeling of desolate urban blight which some of the emptier malls suffer from. The food court is standard for a mall. Green Leaf offers healthy salads, Sbarro, Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts for your coffee desires, a typical Asian place and a few other food vendors are there to serve you. They have the seasonal children's photos at this mall as well. The displays are usually really cute and the lines not as long as some of the other malls, making this a great choice for visiting Santa or the Easter bunny for a photo op.

It's a mall.... nothing special about this place. Typical with a food court, standard mall stores, nothing to get excited about.

The mall! I can't believe it's 2015 and malls even still exist (there's a photographer who went around the country photographing abandoned malls, really cool, google it). These days I do almost all my shopping on Amazon, but there is still a place for the mall in my life it seems. I received a few coupons in the mail (you know $10 off Kohl's, a free pair of underwear at Victoria's Secret, a free travel lotion at Bath and Body Works). I know these coupons are just a ploy to get me into the store, but I have a decent amount of willpower so I save them up and every few months go to collect my free items. The Coral Square Mall is really nothing special. As for anchor stores they have Kohl's, JC Penny, Sears (I cannot believe they're still around), and Macy's. I usually have a pretty specific game plan coming here: park at Kohl's for browsing, then head to Victoria's Secret and Bath and Body Works (which are in the same wing). Outside Kohl's there is a dentist's office (interesting) and a children's play area that is always surprisingly bustling. There is definitely a dated feel in here, but it has the stores I need, and it is never crowded (save for the holiday season). Yes, I would much prefer to go to Sawgrass or Aventura and have a shopping spree, but I just can't stand the crowds of people, and I end up too anxious and frustrated from the crowds to really enjoy the store's offerings. That definitely isn't the case with Coral Square. There is a small food court here, which I did actually eat at once, and though it could be cleaner overall, the food offerings are decent with everything from Asian (sushi included) to Dairy Queen, to vegetarian options....they also just put some sort of sit down restaurant in the food court. I'm always here with a specific plan an purpose to be in and out, so I've never been in the bathrooms here, but I can't say that I want to try them either. There are for sure better malls in South Florida, but for the stores I frequent, this one suits me just fine, and parking is never an issue.

I grew up with the Coral Square Mall and I agree with the review, Dora P., this place serves your mall-suburbia needs. It's easily digestable, you got your JCPennys, Macys, Sears, Dillards...Spencers, Hot Topic, Pacific Sunwear for the teens...Build a Bear store for the kiddies... I mainly go here for the American Eagle/Aeropostale to stock up on some basic stuff.

A very small mall with the most basic stores when it comes to a girl's shopping needs (Victoria's Secret, Express, Old Navy, etc.). Most of the stores are smaller than usual mall stores (particularly JCPenney, Gap, Sears, etc), but for the basic essentials, it's ok. Kinda sad that there's no Sephora and it took years to get a Wet Seal, but it serves its purpose. It's not the neatest mall ever, but it's cleaning up its image and there have been several noticeable renovations in this place, including new mall fronts, better kid play areas, and renovated aquariums. Besides, it's definitely not the worst mall I've ever been to. That distinction goes to the now defunct Palm Beach Mall.

This mall is pretty basic. It has all the stores you would want and a decent play area for kids. The food court has the typical mainstays (pizza place, oriental food, burgers, ice cream) and occasionally they have a few new places open. Spaghetto gets very good Yelp reviews although I have never personally tried it. The clientele of the mall is the only negative. There are a lot of, for lack of a better word, ghetto people who shop in this mall. When I say ghetto I mean it more in terms of attitude than appearance. They have solid anchors and have good holiday shopping hours. Parking is never an issue as long as you avoid the main food court entrance. They are also trying to raise the appeal with nicer dining establishments like Buca di Bepo and The Feisty Bull ( which recently closed for a "bigger and better brand" according to a sign on the window).

I used to live and work across the street from this mall. It had all kinds of stores. I loved the nail salon and I found great dresses in the shops.
